Personally speaking I think anyone interested in Xenosaga is better off playing the games. Even with their flaws. Since after all, the anime is meh and it only covers the first game anyway. Oh, and one benefit to playing the third game is the outfit M.O.M.O. looks really good on her.

Well, this will not help me for watching it for sure...even if I'm a little curious.

I got this boxset during the BB 50% off sale for cheap. I'm not in a hurray to see it though. The grade though isn't exactly surprising.

This review was actually supposed to be done quite some time ago. It's just when I wrote my first draft I felt I wasn't doing justice in the way I was summarizing the series so I took it upon myself to rewatch the series (and in the midst of all this I managed to watch and cover Desert Punk in the span of two weeks) and go over all the details with a fine tooth comb.

My god did I want to stab myself in the head so badly doing this. Seriously, the series isn't horrible and not bad for a first watch but the second time around was just a trial in patience. I don't want to compromise my actual review so I'll just leave it at that.

O-chan
